Ogden Codman Jr's Design Influence - A House and Garden Tour
Saturday, May 11, 10:00 - 11:30 a.m.
Codman Estate, 34 Codman Road, Lincoln, Mass.
Explore the glorious Codman Estate house and Italian garden to celebrate the family home of notable architect and interior designer Ogden Codman Jr.
Ogden Codman Jr stated that the Codman Estate's colonial character and history helped to form his professional decorating style. Like many generations before him, Codman carefully preserved aspects of his c.1740 ancestral home while making his distinct imprint on the mansion’s interior spaces. In 1899, Codman advised his mother on the design of a walled Italian garden in the northwest side of the house. This garden reflects Codman’s sense of classicism and order, with classical proportions, statuary and Florentine terracotta urns. As a “giardino segreto” it sharply contrasts with surrounding picturesque forest and meadows.
